Joseph Pennell's 1883 pen and ink drawing "Tail Piece from Michaelangelo's Faun" is a detailed study of a decorative element from a sculpture by the Italian Renaissance master, Michelangelo. The piece is a complex arrangement of stylized flora, fauna, and geometric forms. Pennell, known for his architectural illustrations, captures the intricate detail of Michelangelo's design with precise lines and hatching. The drawing, now in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, showcases the artist's keen observation and appreciation for Renaissance artistry.
